Woman Shoots Herself To Get Medical Attention
A desperate unemployed woman shot herself in the shoulder to get medical help for a pre-existing injury.
Katy Myers, 41, from Niles, Indiana had injured herself a month ago while playing with her dogs. She was trying to save her Chihuahua from the other, bigger dog when she pulled a muscle and tore the rotator cuff.
“I just grabbed him with my arm, with my hands on his collar and he just kept going,” she said.
“It just popped three times and ground together,” she recalled. “And you know I can't do nothing with it.”
Unable to afford health insurance, she was quickly disposed off by the Niles hospital emergency staff while still in excruciating pain. Several trips to the hospital and different clinics went in vain as the pain only got worse.
After a month of agony, she decided to take some extreme steps to draw attention to her condition. She grabbed her in-laws' gun, and shot herself in the shoulder.
"I put the ice pack here and the ice pack here,” she said . “Took the house robe and tied it and leaned back and put the pillow in front of it, and one beside my face. I put the gun just like that and pulled the trigger,” said Myers as she showed her wound.
Her mother-in-law called 911 and soon she was on an ambulance and heading for the hospital.
Myers defended the drastic decision to shoot herself.
“In my mind it was very rational to do this, so they would fix me,” she said.
However, her wound was not serious enough and she was sent home in less than 24 hours.
"Nothing got accomplished," she said.
